A military cure for constipation

I've been within halitosis range of an 81mm. mortar that did this . . . and believe me, it's an incentive to speed like few others in my experience!

That would wake you up a WHOLE lot faster than a quart of high-octane coffee! Yowser. A normal hang-fire is bad enough. having one drop, flaming, right into your gun pit next to the read supply of ammo? A whole new level of OHSHIT!-ness.

I've seen a few clips like this, like the wire-guided A-T rocket that "bloops" out of the launcher, onto the ground. Or the mortar that detonates in the tube instead of firing. Notice how many of those happen to folks hollerin' "Allah Akbar!"? Seems to be a trend.....
